### 3/5 — Poner stick

*2025-03-09, version 1.0*

El pad táctil es tan sensible que si apoyas un poco el dedo toma que es otra dirección, a mi parecer se hace injugable de esa manera. Sin mando yo yo no recomendaba nada la verdad. Solo eso hace que el juego baje mucho la calidad

### 3/5 — For the love of god add another control option

*2024-10-18, version 1.0*

I refuse to go above 3 stars until it’s added. An invisible floating thumbstick, with the diameter of the singularity of a grain of sand shrunk to a black hole, is atrocious. That being the only control option should be grounds for termination of somebody

### 2/5 — Bueno pero

*2024-10-04, version 1.0*

Pongan para poder ajustar el joystick por favor se juega algo incómodo así

### 3/5 — It’s okay…

*2024-06-13, version 1.0*

I would have rated it higher if it weren’t for the controls being horrible, I have to play this game with a controller otherwise I wouldn’t play it at all. It’s an okay overall experience, though.

### 3/5 — Ótimo jogo

*2024-04-18*

O jogo é ótimo, único problema são os controles ridículos, pelo amor de Deus, qual o problema de colocarem um joystick para andar? Extremamente difícil de se locomover, vc arrasta pra cima e o personagem move pra diagonal

Ridículo, melhorem.

### 3/5 — Movement controls are impossible to deal with

*2024-03-25, version 1.0*

The game is great and unique but without a controller it’s just unplayable. The movement axis on touch controls is too sensitive and it doesn’t register properly, so I had to uninstall. Didn’t expect this from Devolver, their games are usually perfectly playable with touch controls.

### 4/5 — Cute game it’s a 7/10

*2024-01-14, version 1.0*

It would be a ten if this game actually let you customize how you navigate. The way you move through the world is really awkward and it makes the game not fun to play.

### 3/5 — Hard to move but good art

*2023-08-25, version 1.0*

Overall, good game BUT it is VERY hard to move! I’m sure that many people have already experienced this and the developers have done NOTHING, although the artist has done an excellent job. I love the aesthetic of the game however this does not make up for the fact that it is a very rough draft of a would-be great game. The second stage of the game is incredibly hard and I think that this game is better as an idea than a reality

### 3/5 — Где мой сосок?!

*2023-07-18, version 1.0*

Игра хорошая, но где мой сосочек? Нет,реально. Это УЖАСНО, управлять невидимым нечто невозможно!Персонажа болтает из стороны в сторону. Верните джойстик или сделайте в управлении чтобы можно было выбирать с чем играть. Реально, это не просто не удобно, это ОТВРАТИТЕЛЬНО. Управлять вот этим не возможно. Но если у вас есть геймпад, то можно спокойно покупать  и играть. На этом всё!

### 2/5 — Es ist mager

*2023-07-14, version 1.0*

Auch nach mindestens drei Jahren im appstore hat es noch immer bugs. Dazu ist die story echt schlecht gemacht und das wiederbeginnen langweilig. Ein schlechtes spiel mit zu viel gelaber.

### 5/5 — Super Spiel aber….

*2023-06-29*

Bitte eine Option wo man die Spielstände auf die anderen slots kopieren kann .
Wenn es schon kein cloud Save gibt dann bitte das. 🥲

### 5/5 — maravilhoso

*2023-05-25*

que jogo ótimoooo

### 1/5 — Controls don’t work on iPhone

*2026-08-05, version 1.0*

This game looks like it could be good. 

I will never know because I can only move in on direction - towards the left of the screen - and once I move that way, I can’t move back to the right. 

It is like an impenetrable wall follows me. Eventually I am stuck all the way on the left of the screen.

I tried to play for about 20 minutes, but the game keeps doing the same thing.

I read about this issue in reviews a few times, but thought…those were all older reviews and this was probably an issue with older phones.

Thought the company must have (obviously) fixed the issue, so I bought the game.

I tried to go to the help website and it is no longer active.

I tried to process a refund and the Apple site states “you have no eligible items.”

### 1/5 — (Отврат)

*2025-02-27, version 1.0*

Верните джойстик. Ужасное управление из за которого не возможно играть!!!!! НЕ ПОКУПАЙТЕ ЭТУ ИГРУ. Если вы посмотрите на визуальную часть и вам понравится то вы все ровно не сможете нормально насладиться игрой из за надолго, отвратительного управления. Просто послушайте совет и не берите эту помойку. Купите лучше skul если на то идет разговор. Будте аккуратней в выборе игры.!.

### 1/5 — M

*2025-01-28, version 1.0*

C’est la deuxième fois que le jeu crash et je doit recommencer a zéro à chaque fois.

### 1/5 — Jostick

*2024-12-18, version 1.0*

Muy bueno solo el juego pero por favor pongan el jostick fijo,también que sea pantalla completa porque no abarca todo mi celular

### 1/5 — 无语言选项，键位冲突，只适合手柄游玩

*2024-12-05*

只有英语没语言选项，只适合手柄，移动键位冲突，画风质感打击感没得说👍

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on gen 9

*2024-10-10, version 1.0*

Can’t move character more than one direction, so can’t play game. Waste of 6 bucks.

### 1/5 — 게임만들다 쳐 맞아서 조작감 이따위로 만들었나?

*2023-10-20*

이건 너무한거 아니냐? 기상패드 하나만 만들어도 극찬 받을 게임을 왜 이렇게 만드는거냐ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
거기다 리뷰보니까 유저가 직접 문의해서 가상패드 업데이트 해준다고 했다가 지금 2년이 지났는데 업데이트를 한번 안해주네 니들이 그러고 게임사 맞냐?

### 1/5 — Bug

*2023-05-25, version 1.0*

Во время игры произошла неизвестная ошибка, после которой были удалены сохранения по игре!!! Как исправить, а то не хочется все сначала проходить.

### 1/5 — Complètement à revoir

*2023-03-10*

### 1/5 — Update update

*2023-01-22, version 1.0*

### 5/5 — Funciona perfecto con mando

*2026-06-02, version 1.0*

Tenía dudas de comprar este juego porque hay reseñas contradictorias sobre el control. Se puede jugar perfectamente con un mando externo bluetooth. Para los amantes de este género, es un juego imperdible.

### 5/5 — One of the best.

*2026-03-12, version 1.0*

This game is one of my favorite titles. Yes it’s got randomly generated worlds not levels. So when you beat Mormo at the end of a world, or die. The next hero arises one hundred years after, in a completely run down area if you lost, and a more lush if you won. Tons of puzzles, and awesome gadgets to find. Literally the developers put their heart, and souls into this game. I love it so much I bought the physical on my switch. My son, and I absolutely love this game. Definitely for fans of old school Zelda games. This one brings an awesome mix to that though. Don’t listen to bad reviews, as it’s usually Sony fan girls complaining, cause it’s too hard. Which it isn’t.

### 5/5 — JOYSTICK ERORR

*2025-10-02, version 1.0*

Please fix this movement joystick in control its not normal, developer please try to download your game on iphone then play it, so you can feel it.

### 5/5 — Gerakan karakter

*2024-12-04, version 1.0*

Tolong update joystick untuk geraknya sangat tidak nyaman dengan pergerakan karakternya

### 5/5 — Sensacional

*2024-11-22, version 1.0*

Que gran juego, música escenarios control todo muy cuidado. Además al jugar con un mando como backbone es genial. Uno de los juegos más bonitos y bien hechos que hay en Apple Store. Además en castellano y a 60 fps. 👍

### 5/5 — It’s amazing!

*2024-06-23, version 1.0*

It’s absolutely worth the buy and if you love classic rpg adventure gamesthis is the definitely for you. I love that you can have animal characters that make little animal sounds when you attack or roll. I’ve done very little else besides play this game for the past 5 days.

### 5/5 — Pls add dpad to this game

*2024-05-19, version 1.0*

It’s hard to control the character because it’s has no dpad

### 5/5 — Why no more update

*2023-11-11, version 1.0*

This is an extremely good game for a mobile standard.

### 5/5 — Language 😢🙃 ooooooooo

*2023-10-11*
